ln-Ceiling Speaker Placement

Designed to function in any drywall or drop ceiling, Klipsch
in-ceiling speakers are engineered tor years of performance.
Minimum construction requirements call for drywall or other
mounting surfaces to be at least 3/ " thick. ln drop ceiling
installations, typical drop in" 2 x 4' and 2 x 2' ceiling tiles are
composed of low density materials which have the potential over
time to sag and Vibrate audibly. To maximize the acoustic
performance of your in-ceiling speakers, Klipsch recommends
you replace the original mounting panel with 1/2" to 3/4"
plywood or medium density fiberboard (MDF) (see above).

Speaker installation (for New Construction, skip to step #3)

1. Cut the appropriate size opening in the wall or ceiling using
the template provided. It the template is not available, cutout
dimensions are provided on the Klipsch website,

cannot be achieved, you may add 1/4" to each dimension. Be
careful not to cut through any existing wiring or plumbing. Avoid
compromising any fire stops between studs.

2. Run speaker Wiring (18 gauge minimum) to the openings. Be
sure to comply With all building codes in your area.

3. Attach the wire to the speaker using the wires color coding or
markings as a guide to maintain proper polarity.
